What is the EU Transparency Register?

The EU institutions interact with a wide range of groups and organisations representing specific interests. The Transparency Register aims at answering core questions such as the initiatives followed, by whom and with what budgets. It aims at showing the open interactions of the European Parliament and the European Commission with groups and organisations.

Why is it important for ILSI Europe?

Being part of this register officially recognises that ILSI Europe complies with the EU Transparency standards. ILSI Europe, classified under the non-governmental organisation section, openly describes the scientific events and activities performed. ILSI Europe officially declares that the organisation’s purpose is not to influence but to excel in scientific evidence under the consensus of Academics, Industry and Institutions. In consequence, ILSI Europe designates its budget to public scientific events.
